There is a reason babies are vaccinated for HBV. Not just because the mother might be HBV positive but because being infected early on in life almost ensures that they will develop chronic liver disease, or maybe liver cancer. Do you know that every person who handles your baby is HBV neg?

New prints have been added 🔋bender is here!

Art has been my full-time job, but the platforms I relied on changed their payouts this year and last. I'm working through some financial challenges, and any support with prints, commissions, Ko-Fi, even just sharing my work, means a lot right now.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.
